Linear path?

Does anyone have any screenshots that show more than just a path?
Every screenshot I have seen on here so far looks like a path or very linear.
I am not seeing any wide open fields or mountains in the distance that you can approach.

It's been my experience that you can't really tell the lay-out of a game world just by looking at a few screenshots. Maybe wait for a video? Even then it may be hard to tell until you actually get to play the game or read some reviews of someone who has played it...
Goto the official page and look at the available screenshots http://www.play-earthrise.com/gallery.php?type=1
You might come across some wide plains and mountains.
